[QUOTE]Originally posted by With a name like Smuckers: [QB] Hammer, you really need to do some homework as to the history of what happened with the Palestinians. First of all, the Arabs helped Britian defeat the Ottomons in return for their promise that Arabs would have an independent state. At the same time Britian was promising the Zionists (it is a real word and real people, it is not made up, do some research that is what they called THEMSELVES) that they could have Jerusalem (and most of where they are today). For this they received funding from the Zionists to keep the war machine going, that was around WWI...now go ahead to WWII, some European Jews were heading down into Palestine and the influx started annoying the Arabs because they didn't see them as immigrants, they saw them as settlers. They were causing a lot of havoc already. Following WWII the huge influx of Jewish from countries in Europe (sometimes illegally) into Palestine could no longer be ignored. The Palestinians began pushing back, fearing the rumors they were hearing of settlements (smart people, that's exactly what happened). King Abdullah of Jordan took a side with Britian because he envisioned a greater Syria, so he thought if he could keep sides with Britian he might be able to at least hold onto some land for the Arabs. Bad idea. Why? Because when the Arabs tried to fight back - they found it difficult, they were still weak from fighting the Ottomons off for the Brits. Meanwhile the British had rounded up the Arab leaders and shipped them off to a tiny little island off of the coast of India. The people fighting for the Palestinians were unorganized, on their own and basically fighting for land which had been in their families for generations. When they attempted to fight back, Britian armed the Jews and backed them into staying, the Jordanian army COULD HAVE helped at this moment but instead they pulled back and this was a key moment in what happened because this allowed the Jews to get a strong hold in Jerusalem pushing Palestinians who had a right to their own land into refugee camps in Syria, Jordan, Egypt, etc. Most were told it would be a short while, a few days, a few weeks, a couple of months, etc. Whether they were tricked or lied to remains in history but what we do know is that they were killed, bullied, lied to and used. You will never FIND ONE SINGLE PALESTINIAN who is either directly from Palestine or who is a child or grandchild of a refugee who does not claim to be Palestinian because they still believe in going home someday. Since this far back there have been endless fighting, endless killings, endless accusations and endless warmongering due to one key fact: these people moved into an area pushing the natives out without a care for what happened to them. The Jews actually believed they had a God-Given right to be there and the Palestinians could go elsewhere and die and live in squalor for all they cared. Before they came, there were Jews in Palestine, the Palestinians lived with them in peace for generations, no conflicts, no wars (other than the occasional tribal conflict which happened ordinarily in a neighborhood). The mere fact that there are some who prefer to distort the history and claim they have what they deserve and should just take what they get and shut up is a slap in the face to all humanity. Some of them STILL to this day live in refugee camps, are treated like 2nd class citizens and ALL dream of going home one day to the place that was stolen from them. :( [/QB][/QUOTE]
